Nip/Tuck follows the lives of two Miami plastic surgeons, Sean McNamara (Dylan Walsh) and Christian Troy (Julian McMahon). In its debut season, Nip/Tuck was the highest-rated new series on American basic cable, and the highest rated basic cable series of all for the 18-49 and 25-54 age demographics. The fifth season premiered in Fall 2007 (shifting the fictional location from Miami to Los Angeles to breathe some new life into the show), and was set to consist of 22 episodes, making it the longest season of the show yet. However, due to the writers strike only 15 episodes were produced.
